Field strength tensor

Hey kiddo, have you ever played with magnets before? You know how when you bring two magnets close together, they either snap together or push away from each other? That's because the magnets create a magnetic field around themselves.

Now, a field strength tensor is like a map that tells you how strong this magnetic field is at different points in space. Just like how a world map shows you different countries and cities, the field strength tensor shows you the strength and direction of the magnetic field at different points in space.

But it's not just for magnets - this tensor can be used for other types of fields, like electric fields. So if you're interested in understanding how these fields work and interact with each other, the field strength tensor is a really useful tool!
